Helldivers 2 Situation in a Nutshell

  • Sony recently forced Arrowhead to make every Steam user on PC create a PSN account in order to play Helldivers 2... the problem with this isn't that there's a third-party account needed to play, the problem is that PSN does not support many countries in the World, therefore lots of Gamers would miss the opportunity to get to play this beautiful Game and it would just get worse for everyone else that had already bought it, thankfully every PC Gamer fought for freedom and Sony changed their mind and reversed their decision.

    The thing that hurts even more is that Steam also give the player refund lol...even if they already played more than 100hours...crazy...it might not be much but probably contributed to sony decision making
    we are blessed to have steam as a game platform lol

    Why in the actual hell Sony think they can fug with the majority? Number always win. Especially on internet.

    We had 200,000+ negative reviews that dragged the whole game to mixed while recent was overwhelmingly negative. Understand the scale of our achievement people. Your efforts matter, now change that review when you feel comfortably doing so. In my case tonight at midnight, a full 24 hours after I found out.

    I like the part where "it takes only a minute to create an account".Going with that logic, imagine for almost every game out there, making an account and have online DRM at all times...even for SP games.You allow them to pull this crap, they will run us over like it was yesterday.Fuck Sony and some others like Ubicrap for pulling off some ugly shit like this.
